"My own opinion, they are one in the same. I used to fear the word apostate, now it's a badge of honor. Shows I can think, and learn, and be spiritual WITHOUT their help."
AMEN.
Apostate and proud of it!!!

when i was a witness, i was told that a responsible witness purchased a car that was able to be used in field service.
as an example, it would have four doors to allow easy entry for a car group of 4 to 6 people.
it was something that was not to showy, meaning it was not a lexus or something that would make it seem that witnesses were materialistic, especially when working a poor part of the community.
For sure!!!!
Mine has 2 wheels, goes about 140 miles an hour, and gets my wife hot when she rides behind me.

mine.... i was about 10 years old, working with one of the pioneers in our hall, and we came across a gentleman that screamed obcenities at us and threatened to kill us unless we left his porch.
i wet my pants.
the pioneer i was with told me that i was a 'weak little witness that brought shame to jehovah for wetting my pants,' and that my punishment would be finishing out the morning's service with wet, piss stained pants.. it was february in toronto.
And your a tough guy??

Mine...congregation youth party. Great music, "hot" sisters (haha) tons of beer and rye, and we "had to dance 2 watchtower volumes apart".
